So don't leave it to the last minute, make sure you upgrade to a 406 MHz distress beacon this year. That's because from 1 February 2009, satellites will no longer process distress alerts from 121.5 MHz distress beacons. From this date, only 406 MHz distress beacons will be detected."

I should know, I've played with some of the best. But on my boat, I'm the skipper and it's my responsibility to make sure everyone stays safe. That's why I always wear my lifejacket and make sure everyone else on-board does the same. Next time you're out on your boat, make sure you take the lead with lifejackets."
